Review article : Mechanical ventricular support in the management of postcardiotomy cardiogenic shockDepartment of Cardiothoracic Surgery, The London Hospital
Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, The London Hospital 'For many reasons clinicians hesitate to employ mechanical devices of unproved efficacy except in the most critically ill patients and then only as a desperate measure. These approaches accounted for a substantial lag time between intra-aortic balloon pump availability and widespread utilization. Ventricular assist devices, recently approved for initial clinical trials, face the same dilemmas'. Norman, 1977.1
